Normally with XDCR you can specify which documents to replicate out of a bucket. It doesn't have to be the entire bucket. So if you had certain types (comments, upvotes, etc) then only those would sync when the target comes online.

lemmy_server uses the Diesel ORM that automatically generates SQL statements. There are serious performance problems in June and July 2023 preventing Lemmy from scaling. Topics include caching, PostgreSQL extensions for troubleshooting, Client/Server Code/SQL Data/server operator apps/sever operator API (performance and storage monitoring), etc.
